TONIGHT'S IN-PERSON SHABBAT SERVICE WILL BE HELD INDOORS DUE TO THE HEAT. JUST A REMINDER THAT MASKS ARE REQUIRED FOR INDOOR SERVICES.
HAKAFA means "encirclement."
We are a congregation of people
who choose to have no building,
no board of directors,
and no fund-raising.
Our CIRCLE has been growing
for nearly 40 years.
But as we grow, our intimate,
caring, and welcoming
atmosphere remains.

New announcements are posted each Wednesday.

TAYALIM (TREKKERS)
FOR K-5 FAMILIES
Tayalim, Hebrew for trekkers, is Hakafa’s new, outdoor, experiential program for member and non-member families with children primarily in grades K-5. It is designed to introduce families to the relationship between Judaism, Torah, and nature in unique and fun ways.
Join us for our first event:
Family Canoeing Outing
Sunday, August 29 - 2:00-4:00 PM
TOT SHABBAT
OUTDOORS & IN-PERSON!
Saturday, August 21 - - 11:00 AM
Elder Lane Park, Winnetka
Families with children/grandchildren ages five and younger (including parents, siblings, and/or extended family) are invited to bring a blanket and join us outdoors and in-person for 30-minutes to sing, dance, hear a story, and pray at our interactive Shabbat experience. Feel free to invite friends!
Everyone is asked to wear a mask, and we will observe social distancing.
The congregation voted at our annual meeting to accept the recommendation of our COVID-19 Task Force to begin face-to-face worship and programming as of June 1, while maintaining our online presence. A special thank you to the members of the COVID-19 Task Force who have worked thoughtfully and diligently to get as back in-person as safely, sensibly, and reasonably as could be expected in such a dizzying time. The COVID-19 Task Force will continue to meet regularly to adjust the guidelines as science and best practices dictate. As you begin to leave your house more and more, we look forward to seeing you more and more in-person at our metaphorical one.
...coming soon!
